After Lu An returned to the room, he quickly entered the hall of the system.

There are a lot of surprises.

The last time Lu An came to the hall at a glance, he just saw the six of spades, the white of the middle of the field and the eight of hearts, Wu Renli, and immediately went offline.

At that time, Lu An had already entered the system by mistake after overspending his mental and physical strength, and after encountering that strange situation similar to fright, he immediately retreated cautiously and waited patiently for observation.

Although taking risks may often be accompanied by gains, for Lu An, the risks of being greedy beyond what is needed are remembered for the rest of his life.

No matter how mysterious or weird this organization is, Lu An's first instinct is to stand back, back back again, until it is safe.

He didn't live alone, and sometimes being alive was more important than anything.

However, Lu An thought that Wu Renli would find him directly, but now he sent an inexplicable warning message. To Lu An's surprise, he couldn't help but be a little curious in his heart.

Human curiosity is one of the driving forces behind all risk-taking.

Especially now that Lu An feels safe, the curiosity in his heart drives him to come up and find out, after all, his father and brother are still concerned at this time, which is an unsolved mystery that has been haunting Lu An's head.

Could it be that his father and brother are members of this mysterious organization?

By the time Lu An appeared directly on the main seat in the hall, the long conference table in front of him was almost full of people, and more than 20 pairs of holographic virtual projections with different images on the chairs were sitting or lying down.

Lu An was taken aback.

Even though he knew that "Eight of Hearts" Wu Renli and "Six of Spades" Tanaka Hyakue might belong to some mysterious organization, Lu An was still taken aback when nearly fifty people suddenly appeared in front of him in unison.

What was even more frightened was the nearly fifty "playing cards" in the hall.

People with different temperaments sit in their chairs in a bored daze, or whisper to their acquaintances, while some newcomers listen to the seniors' ramblings about what a shuffling process is, how it differs from an emergency launch, and the importance of maintaining a permanent login system.

And even though Wu Renli was silent, some members also guessed his intentions from a glance before going online, leaning back in their chairs and waiting quietly, waiting for the debut of the immature king at the door of the hall.

Therefore, when Lu An quietly appeared on the first seat, the chaos and noise in the hall lasted for more than ten seconds, and suddenly it quieted down, as if it had been cut off.

An eerie silence suddenly crashed into the hall.

Although it was known beforehand, the new king was very unusual, unlike any previous Joker.

But when he saw the brightly colored and swaggering RedJoker sitting on the main seat, which was very different from the previous black and white BlackJoker image, even Wu Renli, who had glimpsed it last time, was a little overwhelmed.

Who the hell is he? Did he recognize himself?

======

======

Silence continued in the hall, everyone was quietly waiting for the first cry of the "king", and Lu An, who was unconscious, was also quietly waiting for everyone's questions.

After all, when a stranger appears in a strange place, the owner of the place should always come and inquire about it.

After a long time, when the silence had gradually developed in an embarrassing direction, Lu An finally couldn't help but ask:

"Uh, everyone, where is this place?"

The solemn atmosphere was suddenly discharged.

Everyone looked at the ace of spades on Lu An's right hand side.

When the position of the Joker was vacant in the past, the first Ace of Spades was the default leader of everyone, and this Ace of Spades is one of the few members of the organization who has experienced three Jokers.

To be more precise, the Ace of Spades is now four generations old.

Unlike the unshakable legacy of Joker, playing cards of other suits are either dead, deprived, or expelled, or concurrent, or hung vacant, and generally few continue for decades without replacement.

Not counting Lu An, there are only nine Jokers in total, and most of the rest of the suits range from twenty to thirty.

The fact that the seats in the hall are not filled today is an unprecedented depression.

At the pinnacle of the most prosperous organization, not only were the fifty-two cards fully filled, but there were several alternate inheritor seats behind each seat, and the hall was filled with hundreds of seats.

Now such a miserable and miserable withering scene is all because of the last damn war.

Sixteen years ago and ten years ago, it has not been more than ten years, and the turmoil of the organization is visible to the naked eye, the seats are empty, the playing cards of the successive terms are constantly changing, and even Joker's seat is now the third time.

As a rare four-generation veteran in the organization, the authority of the Ace of Spades is naturally trusted by everyone.

Hearing that Lu An finally broke the awkward silence, the Ace of Spades slowly replied, "Welcome to our king, this is your organization." ”

"Huh? King? ”

Although Lu An knew that this was likely to be the secret stronghold of a strange and mysterious strange organization, he was confused by the words of the Ace of Spades beside him.

"Yes."

"Am I not codenamed RedJoker?"

The Ace of Spades smiled and said, "Joker is our king, you don't have to doubt it." ”

"And yet, where is this?"

"The halls of our Shadow Heart."

Heart of Shadows, is that the name of the organization?

Lu An was silent for a moment before asking, "Do you have anything urgent to look for me?" I got that message. ”

"I'll tell you more about the organization later, it's really urgent."

Lu An frowned, sure enough.

Is it because I am involved in this organization that there are troubles one after another?

He nodded to the ace of spades next to him, and smiled, "Haven't asked you ...... yet?" ”

"As you can see, the Ace of Spades."

"Uh......"

Lu An took a look at this ace of spades, his heart moved, and sure enough, he called up a long list.

"Codename: Ace of Spades"

"Name: Matthews Brand Canterbury"

"Citizen Number: 109011725561014010009"

"Place of Birth: Commons of Kent Cook, First Domain, District 9"

"Age: 82"

……

In the long list, what caught Lu An's attention was his profession, the Chancellor of Oxbridge University.

Isn't Oxbridge the oldest surviving university in District 9?

It is said that this university was founded in the ancient times of mankind more than 1,000 years ago, and how could such a famous university president appear in such a mysterious organization?

Wu Renli, Matthews Canterbury, Hyakue Tanaka, the members of this organization are really strange, and everyone has it.

Seeing Lu An pause and be silent, the ace of spades said softly: "Please forgive me, for the sake of prudence, everyone has to hide a little." ”

"Everyone's information is confidential?" Only then did Lu An realize that he had misunderstood something.

"Yes."

So why can I see everyone's information, and even some privacy is snooped on?

Lu An looked at the ace of spades, then at the eight of hearts and the six of spades, and did not say anything.

And Wu Renli, who was already suspicious in his heart, stared closely at Lu An's every move, and when he saw him look at himself, he pursed his mouth and didn't say anything, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.

"What the hell is that urgency?"

The Ace of Spades said calmly: "Presumably the king also saw that we are a secret organization. Although we are convinced that no one can catch us on the Internet, the world is so big after all, there are more than 10 billion people, and we must be one of them. In the past 400 years, our existence has gradually been known by people outside, and some people with strange intentions regard us as a thorn in their side, and they will deal with it as soon as possible. ”

"Am I being targeted?" Lu An frowned and asked.

"We have received information that the gendarmerie command has narrowed its suspicions to the Shanghai-Hangzhou United City in District 11, and now there are dog's paws stretched out."

Lu Anxin was shocked, he didn't do anything, why did the rumored military police headquarters full of evil spirit accurately target him?

"I would venture to ask, is this news accurate?" The Ace of Spades asked tentatively.

Lu An hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "The military police headquarters is an important place in the army, how did you get such news?" ”

Everyone present smiled slightly, proud and reserved.

"We, the Heart of Shadows, are the kings of the shadows of humanity. There is no place in the interstellar synchronization network that can avoid our gaze. Including, the Gendarmerie Command. The Ace of Spades explained with a smile.

After the ace of spades finished speaking, he turned to the king of hearts and nodded slightly to him.

The King of Hearts got up, stretched out his hand, and said in a magnetic voice, "Our king, please come with me." ”

======

When Lu An returned again, his heart was full of confusion, shock, and a trace of excitement.

Is this the Heart of Shadow? Good horror organization.

Lu An is a student of the Department of Information Collection and Confrontation of the Third Military Academy, and as the main force in the collection and collation of intelligence information and information camouflage and deception on the battlefield in the future, they are no strangers to network intrusion and defense.

Even the defense of the external network entrance of the Third Military Academy is very solid and reliable, and in the teaching of simulated actual combat, the virtual platform is built to imitate the platform of the school.

But what did Lu An see just now?

The Gendarmerie Command, one of the most secret cores of humanity, has a synchronous communications network like the organization's backyard, coming and going at will.

Unscrupulous, as if this is not the world's strongest defense in the human network, but a foam-like existence that bursts with a single blow.

Those layers of defense composed of various alarms, traps, and camouflages, Lu An walked all the way as if they were completely non-existent.

Even if Lu An lightly touched it under the smiling gaze of the King of Hearts, those extremely sensitive detection probes were like a docile pug, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and no alarm sounded.

And in the staff room of the military police headquarters, Lu An saw the original text of the order.

Sitting back on the main seat in the hall, Lu An was shocked and silent for a long time.

All the playing cards in the hall looked at this immature king with a smile and calmed down.

In fact, everyone here had a gaffe to varying degrees when they first joined the organization, and now they are quite emotional when they look at these newcomers with different expressions. Especially now that it is a new king, everyone is very interested.

After a long time, Lu An sighed leisurely:

"Is this the Heart of Shadows?"
